"Major" Hassan Should Be Tried for Treason and Face A Firing Squad If Proven Guilty (Vanity)
Merriam-Webster Dictionary ^

Posted on 11/09/2009 8:30:15 AM PST by quesney

This was a terrorist attack on America by a U.S. soldier.

In a saner country in a saner time, "Major" Hassan would be immediately tried for treason and face a firing squad.

------

This is ridiculous.

Obama labels as "extremists" those who simply want the Constitution upheld and freedom preserved -- extremists? -- then in the next breath tells us to reserve judgment on what happened at Ft. Hood?

Who ALWAYS gets the benefit of his doubt? Whose side are these people really on?

Great idea, just not willing to paint myself into a corner insofar as the method.

The American people themselves bear some responsibility for the security risks we now face. They evidently forgot 9/11 and elected as their CINC a Muslim raised radical leftist. The buck stops with we the people. Now we have a politically correct military establishment that couldn’t detect an Al Qaeda sleeper cell staring at it from one of its own military bases.

While he is undoubtedly guilty of treason, I don’t see how the penalty for treason is any more severe than that for mass murder.

When will this country understand that ALL Muslims want Americans dead? They ALL support jihad. In their eyes, we are ALL infidels. We must treat ALL Muslims as the enemy. There are no innocent Muslims. We must get them out of our country at all costs. They are as great a threat as illegal aliens. If we removed ALL Muslims and illegals, many problems here would be fixed.

Zero seems to be racking up the “Waterloos”...

Nationalizing car manufacturers and the banking industry was supposed to be a Waterloo...

His waffling on Afghanistan is a Waterloo...

The destruction of the finest healthcare system in the world will be his Waterloo...

The continually rising unemployment rate is another Waterloo...

and this turd hasn’t even been in office a year.

I fear a Muslim doctor killing by stealth much more than a Muslim soldier killing by force.

I will not be treated by a Muslim. Period.

They are here to have “boots on the ground.” They come to soak up what they don’t have in their backwater caves and hovels. They lay low until they are oredered to do their deeds. There are possibly thousands of sleeper cells of terrorists here.

I read last night on FR, that because Hussein(an admitted muslim “my muslim faith”) is the fake president, and also a usurping C-in-C, he would have the say on the military executing Hasan(bacon grease be on his name).

Who here knows if that is true? Is the C-in-C the last word on military executions? Sounds plausible to me.

If it is true, there is no way Zero will OK the execution of his muslim brother Hasan(apply bacon grease here.).

The Army Chief of Staff, General George Casey, raised concerns over the weekend that innocent Muslim soldiers could suffer as a result of the shooting at Fort Hood.

Gee, my first thought was to wonder if other muslim soldiers are connected to this conspiracy or if this act of murder and treason could inspire other muslim soldiers to commit similar acts.

“In a saner country in a saner time, “Major” Hassan would be
immediately tried for treason and face a firing squad.”

Or kept alive with a “kill ‘em with kindness” for long-term interrogation.

I’ve been a bit suprised (and at the same time not so suprised)
to read that the some of the most productive interrogations at GITMO
have been done by female interrogators bearing...freshly cooked cookies.

Keep Hasan alive.
Drill down with any means necessary and find out as much as possible.

Dispatch him when he’s depleted of information for the USA.

I’d like to see that too. Nationally televised. But the powers the be are not in it to win it. They’re still sticking with the death by PC policies that got us here.

He should be hung at the place he screamed his islamic ravings as he slayed our soldiers.

Islamic devotee Barack Hussein Obama will protect Hasan(bacon bacon bacon).

Remember how happy Hussein was at that conference Thursday afternoon? He gave the shout outs etc...He knew about the slain troops for 90 minutes at that point in time.

He was happy because islam took American lives.

He is the enemy.

His execution should be public and mandatory viewing for the entire country. Those politically correct officers who promoted him should be in the front row and then they should be dishonorably discharged from the Army with no retirement.

You’re correct as usual. He’ll get life in prison.

He took half a million dollars in free medical field training, he got paid while he was trained. Now he’ll leech off us for the rest of his miserable life.

Hussein will never order the execution of a fellow muslim.

The right way: short trial, tall tree, strong rope. Or in place of the rope and tree, a 25 cent well-placed lead slug.

Well he was a soldier too. A Major in the US Army. Now presumably the firing squad for soldiers isn't for ones who ARE NOT criminals. To be put in front of a firsing squad you have had to commit a death-penalty level crime. So sadly your fathers comment doesn't make any sense when you really think about it.

It's a moot point. The UCMJ was ammended in the late 1980s to make death by lethal injection the only method authorized. If found guilty and sentenced to death the Jihadi will get the needle, just like a common criminal. I think that was, perhaps, the idea your dad had. Don't give criminal soldiers any better execution than you would a non-military criminal convicted of the same crime.

I’ll add as a “Waterloo” the minutes he spent giving “shout outs” before he got to saying canned insincere words about the Fort Hood atrocity. Of course Hussein doesn’t consider dead infidels to be an atrocity. As he said before in an interview “my muslim faith”.

He was happy at that conference, he knew about the slayings for an hour and a half when he was at that conference before the national live feed came on and we were treated to his jovial attitude. THAT for me, was a very revealing moment as to what a stone cold bastard he is.

Of course his attitude on abortion and abortion survivors had already shown his cold heart. Really, we could all add a few things to the list of his crimes against America. The list would be a mile long. Not enough bandwidth...

"My dad (former Marine pilot in Vietnam) said that firing squads are for soldiers - this guy was a criminal, should be hanged as one."

Well, because of Supreme Court rulings in the '60s, and changes drafted and implemented to the UCMJ by Reagan in '84, lethal injection is the prescribed manner of death for military executions. Also, even when a firing squad was permissible, the vast, vast majority of men executed in the military was done by hanging, with the last one being in 1961.

You live recklessly, kid. LOL

"He’ll get life in prison."

Uh-huh. It'd be the compassionate thing to do, don'tcha know.

The bodies hadn't time to assume room temp & the SOBs in the quisling media were spinning the defense prohibiting execution. Good grief, a caveman could see that from the first words that hit print.
Not you, of course. You're a cave girl, TCP (if you're one a'tall). ;^) LOL

"He took half a million dollars in free medical field training, he got paid while he was trained. Now he’ll leech off us for the rest of his miserable life."

Uh-huh. One has to know a NUT/O-3 making O-4 with increased pay, responsibilities etc was something dangled to retain him. He's in the Med Corp, for crying out loud.

Ask your good hub, TCP. He was an E-9. What was he offered to remain? I know how this works because they did the same with me any just about everyone else.
Not bashing 'em, just saying that's how the system works and apparently in this case? There is evidence the guy should've been shown the door long ago.

"Hussein will never order the execution of a fellow muslim."

No. Don't 'spouse he would.
Be a sin, y'know.

"The right way: short trial, tall tree, strong rope. Or in place of the rope and tree, a 25 cent well-placed lead slug."

Not, "the right way" my friend.
The sane way; which, of course rules it completely out. ;^) LOL

Hussein is one year older than I am. The rejoicing I’ll do the day his protectors give him up, and let all the dirt on him out...it will be worth the wait. If he’s exposed as a usurper, and gets the federal pen...that’s my dream come true. And everything he’s done is made null and void, all his protectors in the pen as conspirators. But that would require a justice system that works. Still it’s a great dream.

And to think I used to want to outlive Clinton, so I could desecrate his grave....Clinton was piker compared to this guy. At least he was born here,and I don’t believe Clinton hates America. Even Hillary is not cringe-worthy anymore for me. That is amazing. That’s how bad Hussein is.

3 plus years of this commie still to come...it’s so painful.
